Indeed. I didn't even know of him until a few weeks ago when I accidentally stumbled upon Take Me To Church on Spotify and instantly became a fan. Fantastic song.
Angel Of Small Death is a tune.
One of the highlights of electric picnic. Brilliant live
Brilliant artist, brilliant album.
He is so 2013
I met him in Sweeney's in Dublin before he played EP. Lovely bloke and had plenty of time for everyone. His music is great.
He's big here as well. A shame I won't be attending Airwaves. He'll be playing.
He is the greatest thing to come out of greystones county Wicklow since....me
Discovered him on Spotify few weeks ago, never really heard of him but i like the 'work song' I've had that on repeat a lot, and 'Take me to church' & Angel of small death are good too.
They kept repeatedly playing a small part of 'Take Me To Church' at Reading this year. I was desperate to hear the whole feckin' thing i liked it that much!
Incredible ascent . Fair play. Seems like a sound man. Has some serious soul.
He is excellent. If he keeps churning out tracks of this quality he'll have a huge future. He killed it on SNL in the states recently too.
Gotta say, I think he's pretty decent.
Just listened to that 'take me to church' excellent listening.
Cheers for the namedrop, will look into album(s)

I've been a fan since his Trinity Orchestra days.
Now where did I leave my hipster beard?

I've only heard Work Song but I like it a lot, I should probably check out some of his others.
He's very good. Obviously I came across his music while listening to Take Me To Church on the radio, then downloaded the whole album and loved it.
Heh. You jest but I reckon the backlash is already starting. Nothing we hate more in Ireland than some cnut who has the nerve to be succesful.
New album Nina Cried Power out on Sept 5th. Can't wait, got tickets to see him in a couple of weeks.
One hit wonder.
Pfft his whole first album was great!
Lots of one hit wonderers have done other good stuff. I'm just pointing out what his legacy probably will be among the mainstream media.
I guess. I'm glad for that kind of thing though, means I can get tickets easier and they don't get over-saturated.
Not an album, it's an EP
Oh really. Damn. Still new music though.
Welcome back Andy!
Was in the same studio he recorded it in, during the same time period...
I have absolutely no reason to mention this, other than the fact I'm bored in work. Sorry
The man can sing but he’s dull as dishwater. Does a nice cover of Sweet Thing.
EP is out. Shrike is gorgeous

If you like Shrike, give David Keenan a listen. Very similar sound.EP is out. Shrike is gorgeous
Love it. Shame it's not longer
EP was fecking unreal. Album is a bit disappointing on first listen
I like a couple of them but haven't given it a proper good listen yet.
My friend Sarah played violin on the new album and has some writing credits from what I can gather. Her boyfriend Rory is Hoziers drummer and played on both albums and has toured the world with him. Nice gig for a few Dublin lads : )
Gonna give it a few more listens. Feel like the EP was so good that the album was always gonna be disappointing in comparison.
He's very good live
I didn’t really enjoy Wasteland, Baby so his new album wasn’t high on my list of priorities.
However, listened to it over the last few days and think its great. Some very good songs on there.
